home

bread is in the oven
kitchen smells so good
everything is turning
out as it should
baby's in the barn
old black dog is sleeping
he sleeps just like a dragon
with one eye open
looking out
things weren't always
this goddamn good
guess it takes
a little getting
used to
being home
we got a bathtub full of minnows
an out of tune piano
we're a dynamic duo
we got disco lights
in the bathroom
we're good at taking turns
with our head up
in the clouds
got a string tied to one toe
just give a tug
when it's time to
come down
there'll be supper
on the table
we'll do dishes
as we're able
here at home
i hope you will forgive me
when i'm misunderstanding you
we are all just doing
what we know how to do
let's take the plunge
into terra incognita
go fishing for lucidity
i'll be you
you be me
looking out
through each other's eyes
catching shadows
of the birds
up in the sky
over home
